Shots Shots Shots

Don't get me wrong, I'm not one to dog on party-esque music, the kind you'd usually barely hear over a deep drum beat in a club about drinking, partying all night long, drinking some more, and not remembering the night but knowing it was probably pretty good -but it's not the kind of music I'd put on my mp3 player and listen to on the train ride to uni.


It's not often that there's a song about getting smashed that makes me want to listen to it on repeat. Sia's song Chandelier's lyrics are reminiscent of other songs about drinking, but there's something about the melancholic tone that really does it for me. The song is basically about how she's the person that everyone calls for a alcohol-fueled night out, getting smashed and forgetting about tomorrow, and then feeling shameful about it the next morning. I don't mind songs like that, but it's not often I actually go out of my way to listen to them... BUT I'M LIKE SO OBSESSED WITH THIS SONG!

I don't think it's the slower beat, because that's what Miley tried to do and to be honest We Can't Stop (video clip aside) turned out pretty... boring. Part of the reason could possibly be the ballad-like sweep of her voice, and that sincere crack in her voice when she sings about her tears... I don't know!! I just really like it! I don't think I'll be listening to Shots on repeat like this anytime soon, but this song really, I suppose you could say broadened my musical view a little.
